Resident asks whether 72 out-of-district students is 'high,' seeks website launch details
Summary
During public comment, resident Faith Armanitis asked whether 72 out-of-district students is a high number and whether the new Apogee-funded website has a launch date; the board administrator said no launch date was set and that parents' input will be solicited.
Faith Armanitis, a resident speaking during the hearing-of-citizens period, asked trustees whether 72 students slated to attend out-of-district next year represented a high number for the district and raised questions about the newly approved website contract.
"Is 72 a high number?" Armanitis asked. Trustees responded that Teterboro enrollment continues to grow while other schools remain roughly the same, without offering a numerical benchmark for comparison.
Armanitis also asked about the Apogee website contract approved tonight and whether there is a launch date and whether parents' input will be solicited. Board administrator Carl replied, "Not at this time," on a launch date and confirmed that parents will be asked for input as the district works to implement the new platform.
The board did not take further action at the public comment period on either item; both enrollment patterns and the website timeline will be handled through administrative follow-up and future agenda items.
